Hi, my name is Jeff (screen name sarge) and I am preparing to brew my first beer. Just joined the forum today and have posted what I am looking to brew and what I have to start with. I work at the Samuel Adams brewery here in Pennsylvania, but have little knowledge of the brewing process. I work in packaging production either filling the bottles or labeling the bottles.

I received a complete homebrew kit and would like to brew a Christmas/holiday ale for the family. I am hoping to get some feedback and assistance from you guys. I am planning to brew it this Sunday.
